RFR: Clarification of Project voting instructions

Wed May 16 21:12:39 UTC 2012

Hi, David.

Sorry about that.  I didn't notice that the ballot needed to be changed.  I've made a few more modifications.  Note that I think that the ballot's second new sentence might be unnecessary:

"Replying to this message is sufficient if your mail program honors the Reply-To header." 
 
I'll leave it to review to determine if it is superfluous.

An updated set of diffs for (http://openjdk.java.net/projects/#new-project) is appended.

Thanks,
iris
